With all my heart, apart from Tony James... He's a c***bag... :)
True.
Why on earth did Eldritch have him in the Sisters?

The longest lasting track pumps are the ones that you don't lend to anyone. My cheapo Beto that I use at home is still going strong after 5 years. The Top peak Joe blow, that a group of us bought for the bike shed at work lasted 18 months, I've fixed it up but its on its way out again.

I had a massive crush on the French woman as a boy, loved that show...
Francoise Pascale. There was also a Swedish woman in series two who filled many a boyhood moment.

Minh ai, sorry to hear what happened to you, as others have said, that really sucks.
Don't you get the impression that if the guy had crushed the wheel of a copper's bicycle, they'd have found something to charge him with?

I spent ten minutes of an otherwise dull meeting this morning explaining what the different races are, and why Chris Hoy doesn't do the Tour de France. It was way better than the agenda. There's about 50 cyclists where I work, but we are down to two fixers (from a peak of four) me & a bloke with a genesis flyer. There are a couple of hardcore roadies (a cat 1 and cat 3) and a guy who's done a sub-10 hour iron man, so there's no shortage of people to talk hubs with.

Swapped my Sugino for a Miche last year and I wouldn't go back. The Miche has run sweeter for longer and is much more resistant to the rain.

Ah, but if WE* had children they'd be different!**
- By 'we' I mean 'we cyclists', not me and RPM.
** And of course, this delusion is probably the only reason the species survives. 'Oh yes dear, but our children would be different'.
My kid is different. She saved up her pocket money to buy an encyclopedia. I was simultaneously proud and worried.

John, where Peter had had "had", had had "had had". "Had had" had had the higher mark awarded, as it was the more correct tense for the situation.
Ding! Ding!
Round One: pajamas.
Took you 2 minutes, and you changed the ending. In addition to this, had had is not more correct. It is correct, there is no relative measure.
All this leads me to conclude that you cheated and looked it up on the internet.
FAIL!

John where Peter had had had had had had had had had had had the teacher's approval.
Go!

its actually 'how 2' with the legend that is Fred Dinnage
...and living not-quite legend Gareth Jones, who started his career as Gaz Top, and used to present BMX-beat (alongside Andy Ruffel) even though he clearly knew nothing about BMX.

@Aidan: Bullshit by Akala?????? Are you sure??
I saw Akala live earlier this year, and large sections of the audience were laughing out loud at this track. Sample lyric
"They're increasing the Congestion Charge - now that's Bullshit,
there ain't no fuckin' where to park - now that's Bullshit"Yeah Akala, Fight the Power!

Nice aero rucksack there. Just what you need for your aero highlighter pens.

Am up for this also. My hamstrings are back to normal now (just as well I am related to a number of physios) and I want to get my fitness up.

I wouldn't worry too much about one language over another. Programming languages come and go. When I graduated, C was the must-have skill, then it was C++, then Java etc, etc, Visual Basic was very big for a while as well. If you understand how computers work, and how OO works, then you should be able to move from one language to another.
I don't cut code any more, but I hire a lot of programmers, mostly C# and Java, but also C and Cobol. Programming languages are the easy part of hiring a developer, you can establish with a few questions and a technical test whether someone knows a language. The decider when I hire someone are things like understanding how projects work, release management, change control - stuff that university courses tend to be very light on. The other big thing is team working - there is no shortage of prima donna's in the programming world, and they can be really disruptive.
The final thing that can set you apart as a developer is testing skills. Most developers are very amateurish at testing. Understanding test strategies, phasing and techniques is far more rare than you would think.

went from this to this
You swapped an Ikea Kitchen for a Bianchi Pista?

London Fixed Gear and Single-Speed is a community of fixed gear and single-speed cyclists.
Good hypothesis. Thinking about it, he also hired Tim Bricheno out of All About Eve at the same time - probably as a back up plan.
